This war has cost so many thousands of civilians their lives! Also it’s a violation of international law to cut of water food and fuel from civilians and starving them to death even if it’s during a war! It’s very painful to watch these civilians in pain and can’t do anything from miles and miles away! These are their human rights! Americans are getting very frustrated and we have the right to speak up!
